In Like Flynn

My first day at Shopify was three months ago today. Since I have performed in my role as Shopify’s Platform Evangelist with skill, capability and panache and without any sausage-related mishaps, I have passed the traditional three-month probationary period and now a full-fledged employee of The Little Ecommerce Startup That Could.

I’d like to congratulate my coworker and teammate David Underwood, who also passed his three-month probationary period today.

I have no idea if I’m going to just get a simple handshake or if there’s some kind of sadistic “equator-crossing” ceremony involved. There will definitely be drinks!
